Installing Office on a PC that has Works

What happens to the Works installation if Office is also
installed? Is there a conflict or do they work
independently? Will the Office install remove works?

Both contain Word, so may depend on versions you install/use.
If running Office why would you need Works?

Actually, the newer versions of Works do not include
Word - it includes something similar to WordPad. The
user is using a Work at Home & needs Works to remain on
the home PC. They want to ensure that their home files
are not touched.

actually, either version of Works.

The issue is that the Office being installed is for a
WAH. The Works needs to be left untouched for the WAH to
be a legal install. Office can be used only for WAH on
this machine. I'd rather have Office than Works, but the
Office installation is not for personal home use - the
Works Suite is. The Works is for the rest of the
family's use.

Since Works Suite2004 contains a full version of Word as do certain prior
versions It would depend on Office version to be installed as to whether
there is a problem with Word
